World of Darkness: Blood & Silk

The year is 1197. It is the Fourth Age of the World, and much that is beautiful or holy is dying. Cainites and other monsters take new steps along the Silk Road, while in the Middle Kingdom, the Wan Kuei rage against the heavens. It is a time of majesty and fear, of magic and blood and it beckons you.

Enter a World That Is Not Your Own

World of Darkness: Blood and Silk is a historical sourcebook for the entire World of Darkness. Here, at last is a historical look at the Kuei-jin of the Dark Ages and their Middle Kingdom. From the intruders from the West to the Hengeyokai of the Fourth Age, everything you need to transport your chronicle to a world of awe and fear awaits you.

Note: The Black & White print editions of this book are not full-bleed. Because of printing requirements there is a small white border around the edge of the pages.

"Example: Lin Hua uses Unity with the Earth to step into a granite cliff face. The Yang Prana masters Mao Gu and Mao Ho pursue him. Mao Gu uses Eightfold Yang Mantle to blast a significant part of the cliff into pebbles and dust. If Lin were standing in the blasted area, he’d suddenly be vulnerable to normal physical attack. However, he manages to move out of the blast zone in time, so Mao Ho goes after him with Semblance of the Scarlet Queen. In spirit form, Mao Ho can then pursue Lin Hua."

But "eightfold Yang Mantle" doesn't HAVE any ability to "BLAST" let alone blast a significant part of the cliff to dust.. It's rather a WEAK level 5 ability, just creating illusions around oneself.
